Here's a fun track day with N vs R on the same tires and both cars are modified. The N is a torque monster and was able to gap the R around some of the bends!! The R would catch the N on the straights.

Modified Type R vs modified N
- Thread starter N Faded oD
- Start date
Just noticed, I'm pretty sure this is @1FastStagea 's N! Nice work!!
The more I see about our little VN's the more I think I made the right choice. top-end horsepower is cool and all but torque is what you really feel on the street.
Sure is
. And not the first time he has selflessly handed the wheel to another tester for a flogging. Very community-minded is our @1FastStagea

Is this possibly someone we already know!!!!
Could this be our very own @1FastStagea This is the way to smoke a Type R!
Check out 2:29, it's a dead give away.

Hahah, I was waiting to see how long it would take for someone to notice
Yes that's my car. The reviewers were blown away with it's performance in the twisties, and the fact that it held it's own on the straights to a certain degree with very few mods. It was fun watching the N pull away from the Type R in the corners in person lol.
Oh, and my front brake pads were also done when they did this test... checked them the night before and they were at 2mm. It's a night and day difference with new pads/rotors, I'm pretty sure it would've taken up the 4/10ths and possibly even more with a fresh set of brakes up front... Oh well, there's always next time.

Good job man!
They like the turn in grip with -3.0 camber. I am at -1.9 and so tempted to do the double camber bolts. Are the bolts staying in place - any slippage?

I loved hearing the excitement from the reviewers about the N! @1FastStagea curious how this video came about. Was it planned or you so happened to be at the track the same day as them?
Because you have the i30N, we don't! We have the; N-line Elantra which you also have. We will never get the i30N here, as it would be in direct sales competition with the VN.
Inherently, the Veloster was introduced in 2011. It never sold well in Europe or Australia, because of its three door quirkiness. I suppose Hyundai, didn't want to make the same sales error twice.

The i30 was also just known as "some family golf'ish hyundai" before the N.
The N specs and driving capabilitys are what lured me to my i30 fastback,
I'm pretty sure with the N on it, the veloster would easily raise the same interest as a modern VW Scirocco :>
I'm jealous! But on the other hand, well... I've got my i30n fb :>

In one of JP Performances Videos with Albert Biermann he stated, that they know about the I30N/VN topic and are thinking about changing the availability for different countries.
There ist still hope.

Give me the electrified racing version using mid engine with a street license please.
This isnt my picture, but it looked stunning on the IAA Motorshow.

I’d love to have the fastback here in the states. I’m about 80% sure I’d be willing to trade my baby in for her more practical sister lol
